Starting Green card from Scratch .... Ideas

All,

Started my green card process in August 2001. Currently waiting for I-140 approval at CSC, which was receipted July 2003. The company I work for is struggling and my I-140 might be denied on ability to pay, or the company might go be forced to shut down at some point in the future.

Worst case scenario is that I have to return to Australia, wait a year (Yuck!) and return on a new H1B.

So, I was wondering what I could do to considerably speed up the process a second time around.

It would seem to make sense that what I should do is target out employers in areas where the LC and I-140 are being processed fairly quickly in relation to California service centers. Being in a more rural area might also increase the chances of the LC being approved. I could potentially cut the whole process (well at least to the 'safe' point 180 days after concurrent I-140) down to months rather than years.

Does this all seem to make sense? Have I overlooked something major?

Thanks,
Doug.
 
Seems reasonable. But how will you identify such a location with guarantee that it will not change and how about scenario where PERM comes up and getting LC done gets very tough? Think about it too.

Going to Australia is not bad idea - after Border and Waugh - they need some support. Till now it is OK but luck will run out soon(6 Months or so to go or even soon - when is Lanka coming?). Maybe you would like to see last phase of glory before it is a thing of past.

:D

Your idea is correct as long as you can be sure to execute it properly. Just keep abovementioned points before you decide.

Wish everything could be achieved by sledging.

Wow, Vik, you seem to have experience in every state/city/town/county, and in every possible LC/GC situation. I think rather than spending time in these forums, you should write a book about your LC/GC exploits and sell it, you may stand to make more money out of it.

If you have constructive and legal ways to fix the problems, why are you afraid to post it in this forum? Please dont try to lure people who are in unfortunate situations into your grand scheme of "a substitue/fast/will process LC for every one".

I think sledging was only a minor part of the game, Australia just outclassed India in the last few games - it is not just sledging, that is for sure. You should have seen Pathan returning the favour, it ticked off Martyn real good. If only we can start giving back the "chin music".

Yeah that is why I said:

Just pointed inevitable. In tests - it is already over - struggled on home ground. One days have counted days too.

Wet nappies is worse then chin music. :D

And I leart sleding from second best team in the world.


XMLJARS book's name is going to be:

GC IN JAR (Art of selling GC on streets)


And GC is sold with a jingle:

GC IN JAR

AAJ KHAO KAL BHI KHAO
MAJEDAR MAJEDAR.
YEH HAI XMLJAR KA PYAR
TUMHARE LIYE SARKAR

GC IN JAR - GC IN JAR.
